I remember when House Oversight was relegated as the freshmen committee.
Started gaining popularity under Obama & gained even more traction under Trump.
Now, it’s one of the top committees in the House & a great place to make a name for yourself-esp if you have bigger goals.

This is not a bad idea and I do think that some people on #Bluesky would pay for it—compared to the reactions to Elon he launched Twitter premium.
I wonder if they’ll offer elected officials access to the premium plan.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?
It's not because of immigrants, trans people, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP.
It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains

Thinking about The Parable of the Sower and Parable of the Talents today. Two great books.
Octavia Butler being a time traveler or seer, will forever be a hill I'm willing to die on, because there's just no way. Parable of The Sower was published in 1993. Look at this date. #BlackBookSky #BookSky

I think Dems have a social media problem.
This tweet got me thinking. On the surface, it's a fair critique. The issue isn't about copying a single person's success—it's about the collective & coordinated investment in social media & influencer marketing that the party has largely overlooked.🧵
